Glycerol-utilizing mutants of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata.
The isolation and study of glycerol-utilizing mutants of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata indicated that the wild-type organism has genes capable of coding for the catabolism of glycerol but is unable to express them. Furthermore, the genetic lesion in the original glycerol-utilizing mutant, L1, occurred very close to these genes.
